We let people come and fish in our lake. We don't fish in our lake, we figure somebody should.
A nice young fisherman and his girlfriend found us. They are such nice people. We gave them permission to come and fish. The young man was here today when I got home from work. I asked him where husband Terry was and he was able to tell me whose truck Terry got into and left. ahaaaa
Then the young man came with me as I walked to the barn to feed Nova and Powder. This is his story:
"I didn't realize that the pasture for the horses connected with the other side of the lake. I didn't know that the horses could come over to the lake. I went around the lake with my tackle box and was fishing away on the far side. The horses appeared close by. I was scared because I thought the young horse was the foal of the larger horse and maybe she would attack me if I tried to touch the young horse.
I watched them approach my tackle box. They nudged it and then the big one gave it a big push and rolled it over. It clattered. Both horses flew around for a while. I was a little more afraid. They calmed down and came back to the tackle box. Both the horses took turns kicking my tackle box. My stuff went flying everywhere! I didn't know what to do. Finally, they got tired of kicking my tackle box and went off to eat grass. I hustled over to my tackle box and spent quite a while picking all the stuff up.
I resumed fishing with my tackle box close besides me. Shortly, I felt something push me on my back! I turned around and there were both horses standing right behind me. I petted the bigger horse. I tried to fish again, but the bigger horse kept coming close to me. I discovered that I could pet both of them. I finally had to leave the pasture and fish where they couldn't go. They wouldn't leave me alone.
What awesome horses they are!"
